1.6 times more sales than in November. That is because I started with microstocks in the end of September and upload around 100 images a month. Still had not reach $100 per month, but it looks like in January I may do it.

Down With about 30 on most agencies. That’s normal for December. Last year was the same. January will be about 40% more then your December income if you have a big portfolio. The small portfolios are not so affected by general trends in the market.

ludesal · « **Reply #13 on:** January 02, 2008, 09:05 »

IS - 62,20 %
SS - 26,25 %
DT - 3,27 %
FT - 0,40 %
StockXpert - 7,87 %

Almost the same as last month (-$10).

My complete 2007 numbers:

CS	<1%	<1%	<1%	<1%	1%	2%	<1%	<1%	2%	<1%	1%	2%	3%

Overall earnings were 30% below November, making my 7th best month in the year.

StockXpert and IS were again my best performers. Sadly subs sales were more significant this month at StockXpert (25% of downloads, making my overall $/dld drop from 85 to 61c).

Huge drop at FT (almost 50%), now my 5th earner. BME at Crestock, but mostly those poor subs sales. Not a bad month in 123RF (for my standards), but donating 3 images for the free download section didn't show any effect.

Not shown above because numbers are very small, I had sales in StockPhotoMedia for the past three months (1+1+2). Maybe the site is finally waking up?

Regards,
Adelaide
